No. You are right. They look like total hot garbage right now. If i didnt know better id say BC was the worst team in the division based on that quarter.
As we recently found out with Spooner and Jake is the same... Sometimes loyalty and familiarity is more important. Thomas will be a bomber his entire career. The grass is not always greener elsewhere.
Agreed. We might have the 2 most underrated D players in the league on our team in Thomas and Randle... Thomas also has the stigma of being from a small Maritimes CIS school in Acadia. Hes a damn good player tho. Very impactful.
A big part of those 50 50 balls is the receivers ability to come down with the catch also. Nichols only gets help from Adams and to a lesser extent Dressler on those throws. I remember several where our receiver had a hand on the ball but dropped it.. Is that on Nichols?
Thomas and Corney have been good all year tho. Hurl wasnt really noticeable last night. I really dont think 1 game proves anything but Thomas and Corney have been good since Game 1 pretty much.
Id love for us to come out and make a statement against the Esks and just pummel them but that wont happen. I expect a closely fought good game.. I do feel the esks are not as good as their record but... 7 and 0 is 7 and 0.
What nichols lacks in lets call it skill.. He makes up for in intangibles.. Leadership.. Putting himself in the way in a blowout to get a block for Harris.. The Warrior mentality.. Never say die attitude. Hes not elite but if im ranking QBs in order.. Hes number 3 right now behind Bo and Reilly and IMO.. Thats good enough.
HH to Thomas - Hes a stud
1. The DLine in general - Dominating says it all
2. Harris - 14 carries.. Over 100 yards.. Just doesnt ever quit
3. Tough one but i think Walker deserves it.. Showing why B Johnson was let go and only 21 years old
HM to Medlock.. Nichols... Denmark.. Randle and The Roc.. Who looks much better at CB
Personality sells... NHL for example instead of focusing on Crosby or Mcdavid or Matthews who basically have no personality and are just robotic in their mannerisms should promote guys like Burns or Subban or even Patrik Laine.. They all have personality.. They could sell the game.. The stars tho.. The "faces of the game" dont and cant cuz while they might be great players... They are boring. CFL needs more Reillys and guys of that nature who show individuality instead of being robots...
Personality sells. Promote the guys with it and you will sell more tix and merch.
